First, how does Cathay looks at centerline thrust multi-time? F-18? Favourably
Second, (and I realize this may sound ridiculous), does Cathay have any military reservist on its books? Meaning, can I still fly in the reserves while working for Cathay? yes plenty (obviously you'd have to be based in the States)
Third, Fourth, and so on...
What is the typical time frame for advancement from SO to FO to Captain? SO-FO 4 years, then maybe another 8-10 to captain
Do new pilots ever get based outside of HK or is it required to live in HK for a period after you join? Yes, many are now based outside HK, but they've paused any new overseas basings, no-one knows if they will ever happen again
and.....
How are ex-militay pilots/military flight time viewed by those that hire? Favourably

Sorry for quick reply, heading to bed!
